    being a misanthrope means understanding the fact that - ignorance is bliss- 4 d masses and most of society -relating to cults and groupthink which is sadly what has taken over the world

    I know it's just merely 9 minutes long but I lost count how many times I agreed so much that I had to stop it to reflect upon the fallacy of mankind. Argue with myself a bit, facepalm and continue. The only one I could watch through was "Ebenezer Scrooge" as it is a fictional character. Admittedly reflective for a mindset I can see but still fictional. Which to me begs the question of Charles Dickens if he had Misanthropy tendencies or that someone within his friends and family circle might've had those tendencies as he wrote a character that is not real and yet relatable to the point where you wonder where he got the inspiration for such a character.
    Overall I am learning more about myself as I've always felt a distaste for humans and cities and yet I had no real phrase to summarize it under, until now. Misanthropy is a word I've heard or seen but never delved into until recently and this is in my 30's. You never stop learning.

    Nice angle, Well done as usual. I would be reluctant to call Nietzsche, a misanthrope though.... I see him more like the coach or the drill sergeant who is telling you what you need to know, and not what you want to hear, and showing the way. His amor fati message is a pretty optimistic and achievable solution really....

    Scrooge wasn't a misanthrope, he was inhuman. He was miserable with himself and his loneliness whereas a misanthrope is content with his solitude.

    I feel constricted being here and born a human. I feel the sentence about people being between beast and overman really screws with my mind. We truly are primitive and unstable while also not being fully developed. I can't explain it properly but it really is as if we aren't fully there yet. It's as if due to people's nature and biology they are bottlenecked including me. So much ego based thinking and tribalistic group thinking and emotional unrational behavior. It's really sickening. And yet here I am with my own ego with my own biases.

    He is not one of the above however a modern day philosopher who saw the good in people although he points out our frailties that is Alan Watts I believe he is well worth a listen. Criticisim without answers or giving hope I believe is the easy way out. As they say we are more prone to criticise than the appreciate a d uplift our fellow man.

  • @cathryndeyn9
    @cathryndeyn9 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    Scrooge is an interesting inclusion, suggesting that misanthropy is a type of ailment that can be overcome by epiphany. In my experience, after processing a great deal of my traumatic childhood - ( lack of experience of love in early years is a root cause of the mistrust and pessimism that underpins misanthropy) my disgust at the human race has grown, not diminished. I have had many epiphanies, and found an inner private peace, but become more isolated from the external world, through choice and the ongoing crushing disappointment in my fellow humans. So Scrooge does not represent the healthy misanthropist, the truth teller but rather a person who still refuses to see the falseness of the crowd, and is lulled into a false sense of security by Dickens' portrayal of the jolly Christmas party, as if all his suffering was caused by his own folly and refusal to 'be happy'. If this were accurate, all suffering would cease if we were just 'nice to people'. As we misanthropes know, this is simply profoundly untrue.
